Akshay Kumar is overwhelmed with the love the audience in China has given to his film Toilet Hero-- originally titled Toilet: Ek Prem Katha--which has made over Rs 15 crore at the Chinese box office on its opening day.

谢谢亲爱的中国观众们对《厕所英雄》的支持，很高兴你们能喜欢！

Thank you audiences in China for your appreciation for 'Toilet Hero' delighted to receive so much love

The film, which deals with the subject of sanitation and the need for toilets, opened in China--an emerging market for Bollywood films--on Friday. It hit 4,300 screens in China, according to Reliance Entertainment, which released the film in the country.

China has become receptive to Indian films, given the popularity of films by Aamir Khan. Even Baahubali 2: The Conclusion found several takers, followed by Irrfan Khan's Hindi Medium and Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan.
